Space Marine 2 Hits Steam Milestone Despite Server Issues

Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 has kicked off to a promising start, despite encountering the usual suspects of launch-day technical hiccups. But fear not, the dedicated team behind this eagerly awaited sequel is on the case, actively addressing your concerns!

Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 Early Access Plagued with Server Issues

Still Hit a Milestone on Steam, Though!

The launch of Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2 in early access was not without its challenges, as players encountered a variety of technical issues. From server problems to FPS drops, stuttering, black screens, and endless loading times, the game faced a bumpy start. A particularly frustrating issue has been the "Joining Server Bug" in the PvE Operations mode, leaving players stranded on a server connection screen with no progress in sight.

In response, Focus Home Entertainment has stepped up, acknowledging the issues in a community post and expressing gratitude for the player feedback. "First off, we wanted to thank you for reporting your issues and providing us with feedback. We’re currently working to find fixes," they stated. The post also shed light on other common problems, including crashes during the initial cinematic scenes and issues with controllers.

Focus Home also clarified that linking Steam and Epic accounts is not mandatory for enjoying the game. "Please be aware linking your Steam and Epic accounts is not required to enjoy the game. These features are entirely optional and will not affect your gameplay experience in any way," they reassured players.

For those grappling with server issues, a temporary solution is to retry matchmaking if you find yourself back at the main menu or the Battle Barge after a failed connection attempt. While this may not be the most satisfying workaround, it could help some players until a more permanent solution is rolled out.
